Mary, happy belated birthday to you!
Doing knitting projects with your daughter sounds like a fun way to make the winter go by! I have an unfinished afghan that I've made one of my wintertime goals, and have a couple of other projects that I'd like to make. Plus, I really need to figure out how to do more than sew a straight stitch on a nice sewing machine that I bought a couple of years ago... I used to do a lot of sewing, knitting, other crafts; not sure what happened that I've gotten away from all of that for quite a while. Hmmm... maybe the internet?
